Acridine derivatives are a class of compounds that are being extensively researched as potential anti-cancer drugs. Acridines are well-known for their high cytotoxic activity; however, their clinical application is restricted or even excluded as a result of side effects.

Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic, a diversity of traditional herbal treatments has been investigated to cure infected people, either alone or in conjunction with mainstream pharmaceuticals, with encouraging outcomes. In this article, we look at the latest research on the usage of natural products to alleviate the severity of COVID-19.

This article discusses current progress in the realm of novel 9-substituted acridine heterocyclic compounds, including the structure and structure- activity connection of the most promising molecules. The IC values of the new compounds against several human cancer cell lines will also be presented in the publication.

These are zoonotic having potential to cause large-scale outbreaks of infections widely causing morbidity and mortality. Papain-Like Protease (PLpro) is a cysteine protease, essential for viral replication and proliferation, as a highly conserved enzyme it cleaves peptide linkage between Nsp1, Nsp2, Nsp3, and Nsp4.

The proton conductivity of the liquid salt is 4 orders of magnitude higher than that of the solid analogue under identical conditions and shows super ionic behavior as defined by Walden plot.
